Construction on Interstate 49 in Bentonville and Rogers will require overnight lane closures beginning Monday and lasting through Saturday, the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department said.
Crews removing temporary concrete barriers, milling existing asphalt and replacing barriers along northbound and southbound I-49 will require the inside lanes to be closed between Southeast Walton Boulevard and Central Avenue/Arkansas 72 from 12:01 a.m. Monday until 6 a.m., weather permitting.
The work will continue each day from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. through Saturday, also weather permitting, the department said. Traffic will be controlled using signs and traffic barrels.
The work is part of a $27.7 million project to widen 3.5 miles of I-49 to six lanes from four between U.S. 62/Arkansas 102 and Arkansas 72.
Construction is expected to be completed later this year, the department said.
